Petrochemical Corporation.

Deputy General Manager Ma Zhongliang put down the telephone receiver in his hand, smiled bitterly and said to a young man sitting in front of him: "Assistant Xiao Feng, I did as you told me, this time, but the design institute was miserable." ”

That young man was naturally Feng Xiaochen, after he came out of the Petrochemical Design Institute, he went directly to the Petrochemical Corporation and reported to Ma Zhongliang the results of the negotiations with Kang Haidong. Hearing that the design institute could not come up with a feasible solution, Ma Zhongliang was also quite helpless, so he could only agree to take extreme measures such as freezing accounts and blackouts against the design institute.

The owner of the 600,000-ton ethylene project is the Petrochemical Corporation, and the Equipment Industry Company is just the contractor of the project. Compared with equipment industry companies, petrochemical companies are more urgent for the project to be put into operation as soon as possible. The Petrochemical Design Institute failed to come up with design drawings for a year and a half, and the head office actually hated it. Ma Zhongliang didn't call Xu Aizhong and Kang Haidong to urge them, but every time it had no effect. The personnel relationship of the design institute is complicated, and the contradictions between the cadres and the masses are serious, Ma Zhongliang knows it, and he even proposed to remove Xu Aizhong and others at the office meeting of the head office, but whether the removal of these people can solve the problem, he has no bottom in his heart, so he has not been able to start.

A few days ago, Feng Xiaochen, on behalf of the Equipment Industry Company, came to negotiate with the Petrochemical Corporation and proposed to adopt some extraordinary measures to solve the problem of the Petrochemical Design Institute. Ma Zhongliang didn't care about this young man at first, but after hearing him say it clearly, and there was no better way for the head office, he agreed to let him try.

The courts, banks, and power supply stations were all contacted in advance by Feng Xiaochen. The petrochemical design institute failed to complete the task as required by the contract, and the equipment industry company had to file a lawsuit with the court, and the court naturally had to support their claim. Of course, if there was no one to say hello, the court would not have acted so quickly, let alone the banks and power stations. For this matter, Luo Xiangfei specially came forward to find some relevant personnel, and told them that the matter had been tacitly approved by the Petrochemical Corporation, and only then did several units jointly block the Petrochemical Design Institute.

Hearing that the bank had closed his account, Xu Aizhong directly called Ma Zhongliang, angrily sued the equipment company, and asked the head office to support him. The Petrochemical Design Institute is a department-level unit and is at the same level as the equipment industry company, but as a scientific research institution, the social relations are certainly not as rich as the equipment company. Xu Aizhong understood that since the equipment company was able to get the bank to freeze his account in less than an hour, it was useless to go to the bank to reason with him, and he could only ask the superior unit to come forward.

Ma Zhongliang had long known that Xu Aizhong would look for him, and since he had agreed to cooperate with Feng Xiaochen, he naturally wouldn't say anything for the design institute. After listening to Xu Aizhong's complaint, Ma Zhongliang first severely criticized Xu Aizhong, saying that this matter has reached this point, and it is purely the design institute's own fault, and there is nothing wrong with the equipment industry company's application for freezing the design institute's account in accordance with the law. Xu Aizhong was scolded, and his arrogance was not so strong, but he repeatedly talked about his difficulties, and asked the head office to understand. Ma Zhongliang hummed and promised to find a suitable way to talk to the equipment company, as for whether he could solve the problem, he couldn't pack a ticket.

"If the current situation of the design institute cannot teach a profound lesson to the staff of the hospital, I am afraid that it will not be able to change their style. Feng Xiaochen said to Ma Zhongliang, "As far as I know, the cadres and workers of the design institute do not regard the tasks assigned by the state as one thing, and everyone feels that it is none of their business, which is the crux of the problem." ”

"Yes, we used to always mention the sense of responsibility, but in recent years, everyone has forgotten this word. When fighting for treatment, everyone is scrambling for fear that they will suffer a loss. When it comes to work, they push each other, and no one wants to work more. In such an atmosphere, how can the work be done well. Ma Zhongliang said sympatheticly.

Feng Xiaochen said: "That's why I have the courage to propose such a plan, so that the staff of the entire design institute can feel the pressure." When they understand that they don't have anything to rely on, the head office will send someone to take over, and they won't dare to blow up. ”

Ma Zhongliang said: "Whether they dare to blow up the stab when the time comes, I don't dare to say it now." However, in the next few days, the head office will definitely not be at peace, I am convinced of this. Alas, I'm really dizzy, I would actually listen to the mercy of such a young man as you, to be honest, if it wasn't for Minister Meng calling me, I would never have cooperated with you. ”

By the end of the day, his tone had softened. When Meng Fanze first called him to introduce Feng Xiaochen, he was only in the way of the old leader's face, so he had to be false. It wasn't until he talked with Feng Xiaochen a few times that he gradually felt that this young man had some insight, so he agreed to cooperate with Feng Xiaochen. Feng Xiaochen's analysis of the internal situation of the design institute, Ma Zhongliang is also concerned, as for whether this practice of putting the design institute to death in order to survive is useful, Ma Zhongliang can only give it a try with a little doubt, anyway, this method is to make the employees of the design institute uncomfortable for a few days, and it will not cause any losses. The work of the design institute in the past few years has made the head office feel uncomfortable, and Ma Zhongliang also intends to let them taste some hardships.

Xu Aizhong did not wait for Ma Zhongliang's rescue, and the power outage lasted until the evening and caused fluctuations in the design institute. The power outage during the day, at best, means that the electric fan cannot be turned on, which has no impact on everyone's life. At night, every household has to turn on the lights, children have to do homework, adults have to catch up on TV series, and the inconvenience caused by the lack of electricity is very serious.

At first, everyone thought it was a problem such as line maintenance, but looking at the surrounding units and residential areas were brightly lit, but the yard of their own unit was blinded by black lights, they couldn't help but accuse the administrative office of being unfavorable, and they had not coordinated with the power supply bureau for so long. But then, the real reason for the power outage began to spread among the workers, and everyone knew that such a long power outage was not a technical reason, but a ghost of the equipment industry company of so Laoshizi.

"It's the other way around, why stop our electricity!"

"Damn, I didn't complete the task, let them go to the hospital leaders, what's the matter with stopping the electricity of our employees?"

"And the royal law is gone!"

The employees couldn't help but scold, everyone felt that this matter was a disaster for themselves, the hospital signed a contract with others, and finally it was not completed on time, so why stop everyone's electricity?

Everyone's angry scolding can't hurt a single hair of the equipment industrial company. This night, the entire design institute has been stunned and has not called, making it look like a ghost town. As soon as they got to work the next morning, the angry workers made a fuss in the office building, some of them got together to scold the street, some ran to the administrative office to protest, and a few academic bulls with a bit of old qualifications directly found Xu Aizhong and asked the leaders of the institute why they didn't protest against this kind of red fruit fruit infringing on the rights and interests of the design institute.

"Old Song, I have reported this matter to the head office yesterday, and the head office promised to negotiate with the equipment company, but there is no result yet. Xu Aizhong explained to Song Shijun, the chief engineer who came to Xingshi to ask for the guilt.

"What else is there to negotiate with! What right do they have to cut off our electricity! We must let them stop this wrong practice and immediately notify the power supply bureau to restore the power supply to us!" Song Shijun shouted angrily.

Last night, his 10-year-old baby granddaughter was doing her homework with candles, because the candles were too dim, and the little girl's eyes were red, which made Song Shijun and his wife feel distressed. Song Shijun was very clear about the ethylene plant, and occasionally felt that it was a bit inappropriate to fail to deliver the design results on time. But work is work, life is life. If the work is not completed, you can negotiate through the organizational channels, and if you don't agree, our electricity will be cut off, how can you do this?

"It's not that easy. Xu Aizhong looked bitter, "The equipment company said that they were acting according to the contract, and we didn't complete the task on time, so they sued the court to recover the 10 million contract money paid in the early stage." Now let's not talk about 10 million in our account, not even 1 million, so the court first froze our account, which is also in accordance with the procedure. The power supply bureau said that we couldn't afford to pay the electricity bill, so we stopped our electricity. Now the power supply department is all electric tigers, and there is no way to reason with them. To solve this problem, it still falls to the equipment company. ”

"It's too much, no, I'm going to call Ma Zhongliang directly and ask him if the deputy general manager is still in charge!" Song Shijun said dryly.

The power outage hasn't been dealt with yet, and other things have come out. First, the manager of the construction company came to the door and said that the two dormitory buildings under construction by the design institute were going to be suspended, and the reason was naturally that he was worried that the design institute would not be able to pay the final payment. Subsequently, the canteen manager also hurriedly came to report, saying that the money for buying vegetables was gone, the canteen could not be opened at noon, and the staff of the hospital could only go to the restaurant to eat. The middle school next to it also came to join in the fun, saying that the sponsorship fee for more than 30 children of the design institute had to be paid, and if they couldn't pay today, they could only let the children go home first......

Xu Aizhong picked up the phone again, ready to complain to the head office, but unexpectedly found that the phone was also cut off.

"This Feng Xiaochen is still not a national cadre, how to do things like a hooligan!"

Xu Aizhong directly slammed the telephone receiver on the table and scolded angrily.
